Hi all,
I have written a couple of cygwin scripts to automate some time-consuming
repetitive tasks and would like to be able to run these from within LyX, for
example via a keyboard shortcut or a customized button on a toolbar. Is this
sort of thing possible? If so, does anyone have advice on how

Thanks Paul
Hi LyX users,
I would like to reduce the indentation of an enumerated list so that
the number is flush with the left margin of the regular text, and the
text within the list is indented by the same amount relative to the
number as it is now.
That is, i just want to move things to the left a bit,

Thank you both for your suggestions. I will do my best to implement
them in spite of my meager programming skills.

Hi all,
I frequently want to produce three almost-identical PDF versions of
the same underlying set of beamer slides:

Someone posted a while back about working on a book on LyX - this

Hi all,
I have two questions about arrows.
First, I would like to include a boldface arrow. LyX allows me to
select Edit - Math - Text Style - Math Bold Series, and I can see in
the LaTeX source window that the markup is being applied (i.e.
\mathbf{\downarrow}), but when I export to PDF the arrow

Dear LyX users,
I am having some trouble using the -pdfpages- package to insert some
external PDFs into my LyX document.
Everything works fine when I use the Insert - File - External Material

Hi LyX-users,
I have 2 questions regarding the placement of floats and the numbers

The first is whether it is possible to have to order in which floats
are referred to in the text determine the order in which they appear
in the final document.

Dear LyX users,
I have recently started getting a strange error when I try to export a

Dear LyX users,
I have a small question about the way LyX places hyperref among other

does not place hyperref last among the packages, as recommended in the

Thanks for the tip. I looked at http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LyxFunctions

Dear Lyx-list,
I am trying to use Command Sequences to come up with a simple way to
create frames in Beamer without resorting to the use of \lyxframe{} or
repeated copying-and-pasting. My goal is to use a minimal number of
keystrokes to create plain LaTeX \begin{frame}, \frametitle{} and

Gentlemen,
Thank you very much for all the time and attention you have paid to my question.
I have tried using Command Sequences to address this problem. My idea
was to create two commands:

Thanks, that works great.
It also exports nicely into LaTeX as you mentioned. As an aside, it
would be an improvement to LyX generally if LyX did not use this
"lyxframe" customization when creating Beamer documents, since it
makes interoperability less convenient than it could be. For example,

Many thanks again, I really appreciate it.

This is fairly simple in SWP, since there is a "Step Bullet List Item"
